DNA Surprises is a space for compassionate conversations about unexpected discoveries, identity, and family. If you’re interested in sharing your story, I’d love to hear from you.
Take a look at the FAQs below, then tell me a little bit about your experience. I read every submission and will contact you if your story seems like a good fit for the podcast.
You don't need to prepare anything! I will start you off with your first name, age, and where you're from. Then I'll prompt you to tell me your DNA surprise story in whatever way makes sense to you, asking clarifying questions throughout.

Yes, every single episode goes through an editing process. Don't worry about "ums," pauses, or being a perfect speaker. I'm here to help.
At this time, episodes are audio only unless otherwise agreed upon. Having cameras on during the interview is entirely optional, but helpful for our conversation!
